You know, that looks great! I like the look of it and, since I have a KR too, have been considering this for a future mod. PTM of the crossbars might be nice too, to compliment the color scheme of the KR. What about a logo for the spot where the Saleen logo usually goes? Your screen name or truck name might look cool there. Just a thought.

Nice mod!

The new TX plates are fugly! On the other hand the grille looks good... BUT paint that bad boy to match the tan color on your KR, the surround the maroon color and cut out the little square for the saleen emblem and you are in business

Last night my friends that have custom trucks, said this

paint the surround the colorof the truck, the grille the tan color of the truck, and black out the headlights. I already planned on doing the headlights soon anyways

Just don't know about painting the grille itself the tan color? Any thougts about that?

I agree with the PTM surround the color of the truck and black headlights but painting the grill tan could either look really good or really bad! I'm om the fence with that one, if it looks like crap you could always paint it the color of the truck.. but keeping it black and adding black headlights and PTM surround should look good!

Looks good! Like many have said I think the surround needs to be PTM.

Already talk to a friend that is going to have his buddies shop PTM the surround. Going to keep the grille black

Also, going to buy some 400 gritt sandpaper and paint to do the headlights

Will be about a week or two before I get this done, since I'm going hunting this weekend will have no time


Thanks all for your input, I'll post up pics once it's done
